Icon of Christ Enthroned in Hand Painted Linden Wood Russian Style, 30x25 cm. This orthodox icon, entirely handcrafted according to the technique of the Byzantine school, depicts Christ seated on the throne, dressed in a red tunic and blue mantle. Holding the Sacred Scriptures open in his left hand, He blesses the people with his right hand, thumb and little finger together in a symbolic gesture. Flanking His head are two significant figures: the Sign of the Virgin and St. Nicholas the Bishop. Following the most authentic iconographic tradition, every detail is meticulously painted, enhanced by the application of gold leaf on part of the background. This treatment illuminates the subjects' contours, giving the icon a visual depth that intensifies with light. The image is finally protected by a matte varnish that preserves its beauty over time. A spiritually valuable piece, ideal for prayer or as a significant gift. Icon Size: 30x25 cm with a thickness of 2.5 cm. The religious icon is made of linden wood.
